See the real deep cut Taylor Swift lyrics to get tetchy about would’ve been Begin Again, the “you’re helping me get over a breakup by being everything to me he couldn’t” song off Red, the album about breaking up with Jake Gyllenhaal, where her examples include “talking about your family’s Christmas traditions”

(the Gyllenhaals are Jewish)

Oh Jesus, I just realized that before when I tried to listen to the Taylor’s Version Red my phone speakers were just blown out in ways that washed out a lot of the subtlety into crap

I mean, this makes Butch Vig mixing Nevermind for car speakers still relevant, with more nuance

Yeah, it’s good and with more nuance, an amusing amount of which is making the exact same album sound less like someone just discovered Rilo Kiley

(Aside from those Saddle Creek-ass guitars on State of Grace)
